What is the best wax to use on my travel trailer that will not make my decals peel off? Thanks

Thank you, used this today and it did great at taking the black streaks away and left a nice finish. What do you use on your rubber roof? Thanks

Honestly. The only thing I ever did to the roof, was to wash it. Dawn Dishwashing liquid is good.

Aerospace 303 Protectant - SPF 40 for your stuff. All I use (no wax) on the exterior of my TT.

Auto detailing has been a hobby of mine for years and I have used a lot of products many haven't heard of or seen like Klasse, Zaino, Pinnacle, Wolfgang and dozens of other products. I do like Collinite and have been using it for years as well as Klasse products. For shine and durability, there is nothing like a synthetic sealant. It lasts for months instead of weeks . Lately, I really like a blackfire products after having detailed my truck with their sealant last winter. It sits outside and spent 4 months getting hammered with road salt and still beads water. I plan on using Blackfire Total Polish and Seal for the trailer soon.

There are special roof cleaner/treatments and doing some research you will see that there is great debate about whether it's good for or harmful to your roof.

What about for azdel material? I asked my local dealer and they told me any auto wax- I don't buy that... Thank!

I use Meguiar's Ultimate Quik Wax. I believe it is similar to the Turtle Wax ICE. Very easy to use, completely synthetic, and gives a nice wet-look.

Peeling decals are generally a function of exposure to the sun .
Higher altitude and sunny days are tough on decals .
Trailers kept under a shed are not subject to the daily heating ( expansion ) and cooling ( contraction ) that can be detrimental .
I find that washing my trailer roof and sides after every trip is what works best in the long run .
Although I mostly use MeGuiars products on my hobby cars I prefer to use the very easy " ICE " by turtlewax .
" ICE " is just a protectant and has no polishing abilities .
However , it is the fastest , easiest to use so I use it frequently .
It can be applied in the sun which some other products do not recommend .

I recommend Collinite # 845 Insulator Wax http://www.collinite.com/automotive-wax/
I have been using this wax on all of my vehicles for the past 30 years on every vehicle, RV, etc. that I own that needs waxing.

Yesterday I finished waxing my DP 39' using less than 1/2 of a pint bottle. Washing and waxing took 1.5 days to complete. We have been waxing our MH since purchased twice a year and it still looks like new. Precision Painting in Bremen, IN. that painted the MH for Travel Supreme, is always amazed how nice it looks when in for service.

Today I finished waxing our 2004 Honda Pilot that we use as a dinghy. We previously waxed our TT's and never had any problems with decals, etc.

I have also used it on all of the Classic Cars I have owned, 1955 Chevy Nomad, 1955 Chevy Pro Street and my current 1963 Pontiac Grand Prix. These were all awarding winning cars.

This is the easiest wax to apply and remove and gives excellent protection and appearance.
